episode 3 elevator door is closing "1987- taoyuan" ma uncle zhang from next door found him when uncle zhang went to visit ba, no one came to the door after uncle zhang opened the door, he found ba unconscious on the floor

maybe he drank too much yesterday and had a stroke let's go, let's go i thought you wouldn't come i've asked for time off from the caretaker agency no matter how angry i am, he's still your father and. the man i had married

i'm doing this as if i'm his caretaker to take care him when i look at his face, i wonder if i really did live with this man for 30 years mrs. dong, you're very professional taking such good care of your husband it's nothing i'm used to doing this type of work

nurse yes does this grandpa, have anyone here to take care of him? it's our headache too his family simply put him in the hospital and can't afford to pay the medical expenses he's lying here all alone it's so sad.

when we're alive and well, we indulge in greed, anger, ignorance, pride, and suspicion who'd imagine that one day we'd be too weak to sip tea? to tell the truth, being a caretaker is very difficult however, it helped me witness life, death, impermanence, and all that i've experienced in my life

come, come i'm coming mr. dong, you're very lucky whatever good deeds you did in a previous life, have caused me to work hard for you in this life i made money to buy you a house to live in now you're sick i even suck sputum out for you in the hospital

this person in front of me is like a stranger to me these 10 days of caring for him have also been the quietest days in our 30 years of marriage do you see. do you see that grandpa next to you? he stays here all alone, no one comes to see him and no one cares for him either

what's up with you? get up now if you can get up. i'll let you abuse me again at that time i thought, where would grandpa be sent? nurse, nurse "xu tao" mr. dong dong zheng

can you read? my name is xu tao, not dong xu tao do you see it? do you know her? let me tell you what i owed you this life i've paid back when you're lying here ill

i've been taking care of you now we don't owe each other anymore whatever i owed you in a previous life i've completely paid back completely paid you back that house was clearly mine why did you take away both houses? you put me and our daughter out on the street, to suffer a lot of hardship

if you're capable, get up go live in that house again don't just lie here dong zheng passed away i feel the hatred i have towards him is like a joke from heaven i thought of that grandpa in the hospital room "magazine on comotose people" after i came to

genesis social welfare foundation, i realized in this society there are people doing work without pay reflecting on myself, 50 years of life have been devoted to making money living a life of hatred this is our president he's in his 60's now

he's a retiree from taiwan sugar company when he was young, his own life was very difficult so he retired early using his pension, he started to take on tasks like caring for people in vegetative states every month there are volunteers helping to fold magazines and

apply address labels it's usually around the end of every month that's how i came to genesis foundation myself auntie ni let me introduce you this is auntie xu auntie xu this is auntie ni, who held my hands tightly when we first met

later she became like a sister to me and gao chu here. here it's usually pretty crowded here oh you're not from taipei how do you know taipei so well? i came to taipei when i was 19 working at the xinnanjing salon in ximending

oh, you're a hair dresser? after getting married, i had an eatery, a vegetable stand and a noodle stand i've been doing hard-working business oh no no business is an easy one that's true, so true chu, come check it out

this one's nice this one this? not bad the material's pretty good it's soft what color is it? it's a dark color is it too dark?

dull? not at all it has white lace trim no, it's not dull at all chu time to eat ah. it smells so good it's been a while since i had your cooking sit

ok this pot of food will last you for 2 days you haven't come for a long time i've been craving your cooking have you been busy? what's wrong? last month i went to the hospital to take care of him he had a stroke

oh, no how come? it's ok everything's in the past now after 10 days of caring for him, he passed away as if like nothing had ever happened isn't that the truth? oh, well when he was alive,

you hated him to death now he's gone being angry or sad because of him just isn't worth it he's lucky to leave this world before me i took care of him in the hospital i even took care of his funeral how about me? i don't even know how i'll end up

we'll figure it out when the time comes what are you afraid of? you still have a daughter that's right figure it out when the time comes there'll always be a way life's really funny before the future comes, you never know what's going to happen

all you can do is to continue to be strong and walk down the path "1987- taipei" sister, here i got it did you turn your car around? yes. yes here. watch your head

i know let's go. hurry oh. ok hello xiaoli you're here? it's nothing. i'm ok you enjoy the trip ok. i know

new year's just around the corner here, take it please you're. mine is yours. stop being distant you know me well, too don't hesitate. later, while i was studying buddhism and thought back on this, i realized

gao chu's love was just like sweet dew that quenches your thirsty throat after i recovered, i started looking for a house excluding narrow, steep stairs or inconvenient entry ways wait a second thank you here, please come in

here, there's a threshold watch your step what do you think about this one? it has good air flow there're windows on both sides in this room it won't be stuffy when the windows are open miss xu i'll go downstairs to move the car you take your time

ok, thank you this is the living room you're standing in this side is still the living room there's a japanese-style room on this side here, feel it a japanese-style room on this side a japanese-style room? aming there's a convenience store up ahead

sit down. listen this time when i went to hualien. i didn't go for volunteer work oh? i went for surgery surgery? why did you need surgery? you don't have surgery for no reason i…

i have breast cancer what? how can it be? don't panic. sit here no, i not panicked sit down here for a while are you asleep? not yet i really didn't know how to tell you

i just feel bad i'm so useless it's like i'm a burden to you don't say that i understand why you didn't say anything even if i had gone with you, i couldn't have taken care of you but, at least i could have kept you company thinking of you staying in the hospital alone

makes me feel so bad when you're like this. at your most difficult time when you're sick. i can't help don't feel sad anymore it's already in the past but from now on i really need you to take care of me please

did i wake you? no, no what are you cooking now? not much after your surgery, you'll need some supplements drink the soup of red dates and gouji i already did the laundry and hung it up i'm leaving in a while aiyo

why didn't you finish the food in the refrigerator? why didn't i finish it? did you plan to go for a month? why'd you make so much food? how could i finish it by myself? i was afraid in case. oh, in case of what? i thought it was strange that

you didn't take your commissioner uniform and the refrigerator was so full it's not easy to fool you no matter what i do, i can't fool you are you just figuring that out? what are you doing now? let me do it, let me do it it's ok, i'm fine you're really a nervous wreck

let me do it. i know how atao, let me tell you, from now on you have to train me to do everything so i can take care of you you come and go like an invisible person is it really busy over in hualien? i couldn't make it this time i'm really useless

how's sister yan? i really miss her she's still the same, walking so fast what happened to your hand? i just had surgery why didn't you say anything? i didn't want to trouble you what's the matter with you? what kind of relationship do we have?

you even kept this from me i think you have something wrong with your brain you should have had brain surgery instead what's wrong with your tendons? why are they so tight? my mother-in-law's been sick these last few days, i've been taking care of her till 2:00 or 3:00 am today my husband's off work and took over

so i can come here to relax you're such a filial daughter-in-law but taking care of patients in the hospital, you ought to be careful i have a friend, who used to be a caregiver once when she was trying to turn the patient over, she unexpectedly hurt her back

she couldn't move for 3 months i don't mind the physical burden when i'm tired, i come here for a massage the psychological burden bothers me more why is it? her emotions goes up and down she's so hard to please it's like that with the elderly we should be more understanding

be a good listener and try not to offend them that's all we need to do it's easier said than done patients imagine things every day it's hard to understand them hmm. drink more water when you go home ok. thank you for coming do you want to pick a song?

no may i ask this lady which song you like? go sing over there let me sing for you. here we go "i can't forget you since i met you." ah, you're so annoying can't you see i have something on my mind? you hurt my feelings like that

hmm anyway, i'm blind why'd you say that? wencheng let me ask you if you had cancer, what would you do? i just asked you to pick a song why do you. why do you ask about if i have cancer?

is that right? i'm asking you seriously you're really asking me. then i think. it would depend on how serious it was if i weren't serious. i would. hurry and get treatment and take my insurance and travel around the us

you silly boy your answer is so lousy sister, i'm serious i'd think about how much time i had left, and if there was anything i hadn't done yet, i'd hurry and do it otherwise, i might not be able to do it in time it might be too late. ah, something's wrong

it might be too late. it might be too late i have to go home now wencheng, help me ask for 3 days off why are you home so early? i took 3 days off so that i could learn some things from you what do you want to learn? here, let me do it i'm not disabled

don't worry let me do it, let me ok, ok. leave it there ok, ok, leave it. go chat with auntie ni what did she say to you today? she's such a bore i already gave her a lecture only a lecture? it's not enough

can you two please do me a favor? if you want to say something bad about me, don't say it in front me let's sit down and chat coming, coming you're making me move back and forth didn't you want to learn? open this it's too easy

so easy can i be your assistant now? you go over there and chat with auntie ni. let me chop it for you you go chat with auntie ni you want me to go back and forth. what's up? it's exercise come sit down

auntie ni, please sit down ai in the genesis social welfare foundation, they mail newsletters and apply address labels if you have time, come to my place and i'll give you a massage i'll bring them to your place everyone is. where's the large ladle?

i put it together with the bowls it's not there how can it not be there? you just left for 2 weeks and you already forgot where it was you must have misplaced it i always put it here i didn't misplace it really, i can't find it

it should be together with the bowls i bet you it's there what are you going to bet on? alright you two are like young kids, who like to bicker i bet if it's here then, i'll skip 3 meals oh.

is it that serious? look at her. look at her she always acts like this, betting with others come look for it if you're so smart it should be here where'd you put it? i'll look it should be right here

you didn't put it in the right place but moved it somewhere else see? here it is what's this? i found it i told you to leave it here after washing it leave the utensils here i always do it like this

you misplaced it i didn't i left it on the upper shelf you used to put it on the bottom shelf i found it even though i'm blind that's enough you two it's ok, you found it come on. time to eat you don't know how mad she gets

just like now, wanting to bet with me i mean well i'm just afraid she'll lose her life savings at first, you nagged chu when she wanted to do tzu chi work and in the end? now you end up being ahead of us it's fate

where you end up is all because of fate it seems that fate is predetermined where you're going, who you meet or anything you might do seem connected and attached by the same thread "1986- hualien" chu, chu this seat

don't look down on the blind don't think just because they can't see that they're stupid i've been listening to the radio all these years i know this master in hualien is really helping people can you trust this broadcast? what you hear on the radio is just like the matchmaker,

who just knows how to exaggerate it's not the same i can tell when i listen to it after you read the magazine, you decided to go and help with newsletters that genesis social welfare foundation besides, i saw it with my own eyes i went to see them taking care of patients and checked if they do a good job

i saw it with my own eyes. they're not lying that's why i want you to go with me to help me see it with your own bright eyes i heard others say that tzu chi volunteers wear beautiful qipao dresses and have shiny hair it costs each one a million dollars your hard-earned massage money are you really donating it?

you get upset when i bring it up then stop talking i just wanted to remind you in the past, it was because i didn't understand i said what i heard from others i really regret it when i think about it now i don't know her who is she? i don't know her but she smiled at me

so i smiled back how friendly yes, everyone over here is really friendly it looks like a fun place here is it a big building? is it? yes, it's pretty big two sisters i heard you were looking for me

you must be sister yan huimei this sister yan huimei, played an important role on my bodhisattva path you've been working hard, brother working hard i'm grateful sister yan why are you here so early? i came for chemotherapy today

and wanted to see dr. gao since i arrived early, i wanted to take a look at the social services brother's sending the car for service that's great please go take a break you've been working hard sister, sister would you please take this inside?

ok, sure you're back late today did you see us all covered with dust? the car broke down it was running fine when we went to tongmen but on the way back here, it started smoking it scared me to death there was nothing we could do cars are like people

once they get old, break down and can't run anymore may i ask how much a car like that costs? you mean that kind of car? about nt$500,000 to 600,000 nt$500,000 to 600,000. i'd like to ask you for a favor me?

something's been bothering me lately what's that? a lot of volunteers came to me and said there's a patient that's a problem for them what's the matter? for this patient, please pay more attention to him mr. lin,

you haven't eaten anything you need to eat something let me bring you something, ok? if you don't eat, you won't have any energy don't worry so much it'll do you good to eat something ok? you're taking chemo now as a patient,

you can understand the other patients better sometimes, caring volunteers might hear the patient say something like, "i'm the patient, not you" and don't know how to react but sister yan, i usually do recycling or cook in the kitchen i'm better at moving stuff

if you ask me to talk, i'm not good at it you're not bad at all i might not know others if it's you, you're sure to be able to do it otherwise, why would i ask you? this chemo therapy might have some side effects, but i'll try to help you solve it after being sick, i started to doubt

whether i was a useful person or not you don't need to worry about this besides, some people might have blisters in their mouth if that happens, you can put ice cubes in their mouth if the temperature is lower in your mouth, blisters will go away sooner i'm almost 70 years old now

and about to start a new life "in the next episode." blowing candles will make you cough like that? xiaoli. what is it? after dinner dessert you tzu chi people are all so nosy you said you want to move to hualien? of all the houses i visited before, i like this one the most

careful, there's a step here
